What would do to turn it into vinegar?

Could you also feed those apple bits and pieces to your pigs? I would imagine they would love those bits.. Heck, I would imagine cows would also love it..?

Actually, it doesn't reproduce with spores. It is a single celled organism that reproduces by budding a clone. It does so Q-U-I-C-K-L-Y. They discovered this when they would leave Roman meal (flour and water) for their dead and it would mysteriously double in size in a couple of hours.

It would appear you are correct, I wonder how they know this tho, I guess when it grows in one place then another, it must have spors that travel thru the air or something??

Oh yeah, just read a bit about yeast, Yeast is an interesting product, I used to be a baker for 8 years and didn't even think about how they grow Yeast, apparently that is another reason why they used to press wine berries with bare feet because there is natural Yeast between the toes, uggghh yuck! haha! I lost most of the apples picked they went bad from a few that were in the bunch.

I think if you built an extender box (removable) that added about a foot and a half of height to your chopper you wouldn't have to risk getting a piece of apple shot into your eye.Great vid.

Yeast is everywhere. It is in the air.

I'm from england too (somerset arrr). The yeast is in the apples. You should wash them but not bleach them. Windfalls are ok if they look ok to eat. There are many foods that naturally contain yeast. Wine yeast would be ok to use if you feel the need.

Our tree is in it's prime for picking at the moment, It's dropped a load I missed already.I read on another site that you can de-core the apples pulp, press and strain, then put in a wooden Keg with a hole in it to let it ferment naturally by its self without adding yeast, do you think this is ok?I live in England where do you get your yeast from?
